CGiii Comment

Take you hands off my lobby boy...

Well...Wes Anderson is like Marmite...love/hate. We all hate Marmite...apart from a lonely and dowdy filing clerk who lives in the basement.

BUT...

With one-liners galore, an exultant performance by Fiennes and a pace that would put a Grand national winner to shame...Wes Anderson has actually managed to make a damn fine film.

Quite astonishing, somewhat breath-taking, hugely entertaining...and, as camp as tits.

The(ir) Blurb...

GRAND BUDAPEST HOTEL recounts the adventures of Gustave H, a legendary concierge at a famous European hotel between the wars, and Zero Moustafa, the lobby boy who becomes his most trusted friend. The story involves the theft and recovery of a priceless Renaissance painting and the battle for an enormous family fortune -- all against the back-drop of a suddenly and dramatically changing Continent.
